The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) performed a controlled crash impact with its Moon Impact Probe (MIP) on 14 November 2008. The European Space Agency performed a controlled crash impact with their orbiter SMART-1 on 3 September 2006. Japan's lunar orbiter Hiten impacted the Moon's surface on 10 April 1993. More recently, other space programs have made intentional hard landings, sometimes with end-of-life lunar orbiters that could no longer maintain their orbits. The Soviet Union performed the first hard Moon landing – "hard" meaning the spacecraft intentionally crashes into the Moon – with the Luna 2 spacecraft in 1959, a feat the U.S. The Soviet Union (Interkosmos), the United States (NASA), China (CNSA) and India (ISRO) are the only four nations to have successfully achieved soft landings. Six national space agencies ( Interkosmos, NASA, CNSA, ISRO, JAXA and the European Space Agency) have reached the moon with uncrewed missions that achieved varying degrees of success, as well as two private/commercial missions from Israel and Japan.

The United States is the only country to have successfully conducted crewed missions to the Moon, with the last departing the lunar surface in December 1972. landings between 19, and numerous uncrewed landings, with no soft landings happening between 22 August 1976 and 14 December 2013. The United States' Apollo 11 was the first crewed mission to land on the Moon, on 20 July 1969. The first human-made object to touch the Moon was the Soviet Union's Luna 2, on 13 September 1959. This includes both crewed and robotic missions. Ī Moon landing or lunar landing is the arrival of a spacecraft on the surface of the Moon.

Anki also has significantly changed how review intervals grow and shrink (making many of these aspects of the scheduler configurable through deck options), though the core algorithm is still based on SM-2's concept of ease factors as the primary mechanism of evolving card review intervals.Īnki was originally based on the SM-5 algorithm, but the implementation was found to have seemingly incorrect behaviour (harder cards would have their intervals grow more quickly than easier cards in certain circumstances) leading the authors to switch Anki's algorithm to SM-2 (which was further evolved into the modern Anki algorithm). One of the most apparent differences is that while SuperMemo provides users a 6-point grading system (0 through 5, inclusive), Anki only provides at most 4 grades (again, hard, good, and easy). Comparisons Īnki's current scheduling algorithm is derived from SM-2 (an older version of the SuperMemo algorithm), though the algorithm has been significantly changed from SM-2 and is also far more configurable. Various medical science decks, often made by multiple users in collaboration, are also available. Available decks range from foreign-language decks (often constructed with frequency tables) to geography, physics, biology, chemistry and more. While Anki's user manual encourages the creation of one's own decks for most material, there is still a large and active database of shared decks that users can download and use. They provide support for speech synthesis, enhanced user statistics, image occlusion, incremental reading, more efficient editing and creation of cards through batch editing, modifying the GUI, simplifying import of flashcards from other digital sources, adding an element of gamification, etc. More than 750 add-ons for Anki are available, often written by third-party developers. Since version 0.9.9.8.2, these features are in separate plug-ins. Japanese and Chinese reading generation Īnki can automatically fill in the reading of Japanese and Chinese text. There also is a third-party open-source ( AGPLv3) AnkiWeb alternative, called ankisyncd, which users can run on their own local computers or servers. This allows users to keep decks synchronized across multiple computers and to study online or on a cell phone. One card may have a question (expression) and an answer (pronunciation, meaning).īy keeping the separate cards linked to the same fact, spelling mistakes can be adjusted against all cards at the same time, and Anki can ensure that related cards are not shown in too short a spacing.Ī special note type allows generation of cloze deletion cards (in Anki 1.2.x, those were ordinary cards with cloze markup added using a tool in the fact editor).Īnki supports synchronization with a free (but proprietary) online service called AnkiWeb. The user can design cards that test the information contained in each note. This example illustrates what some programs call a three-sided flashcard, but Anki's model is more general and allows any number of fields to be combined in various cards. Field 3: Expression in familiar language – "cake". ![]() Field 1: Expression in target language – "gâteau".For example, with respect to learning a language, a note may have the following fields and example entries: Notes are analogous to database entries and can have an arbitrary number of fields. The decks of cards, along with the user's statistics, are stored in the open SQLite format.Ĭards are generated from information stored as "notes". ![]() Since it is content-agnostic, the cards are presented using HTML and may include text, images, sounds, videos, and LaTeX equations. Individuals who need to efficiently remember anything in their daily lives can benefit from Anki. Anki's implementation of the algorithm has been modified to allow priorities on cards and to show flashcards in order of their urgency. The SM-2 algorithm, created for SuperMemo in the late 1980s, forms the basis of the spaced repetition methods employed in the program. The name comes from the Japanese word for "memorization" ( 暗記). ![]() Anki ( /ˈɒŋkiː/ Japanese: ) is a free and open-source flashcard program using active recall testing and spaced repetition, techniques from cognitive science for memorization.

Thankfully Pokemon selection rarely feels like a major issue with regards to game balance since both teams can use the same Pokemon simultaneously, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t pay-to-win concerns elsewhere. After that, you can unlock Pokemon for free at a notably slow pace through in-game currency or login rewards – otherwise they will cost you $6-10 each (unsurprisingly, beloved Pokemon like Lucario, Greninja, and Gengar are the most expensive and seemingly some of the most powerful). Only Pokemon you own can be used in Ranked mode, whereas Standard and Quick matches give you access to an extra set of four rotating daily Pokemon. After completing the tutorial and collecting the Day 1 rewards, you will own five Pokemon out of its current roster of 21. In true free-to-play fashion, Pokemon Unite launched with a full suite of purchasable Pokemon, cosmetics, and upgrades just waiting for mom’s credit card to set them free. For example, Held Items are impactful enough that the Support Pokemon Eldegoss can use its superior speed and healing skills to become a formidable fighter too, which is a rewarding level of flexibility to have if you are a player who likes to experiment with unique builds. ![]() Pokemon are all slotted into different roles, such as Defender or All-Around, but with the right approach many can break out of their intended playstyle. There's even a helpful option to see what builds high level players are using. You might take Leftovers, Shell Bell, and a Potion into battle to give yourself extra healing in a pinch, or X-Attack, Scope Lens, and Muscle Band to increase your Pokemon’s burst damage potential. This pared-down system makes your customization choices slim compared to games like League of Legends or Dota 2, but each Pokemon at least feels distinct from the others even within these strict confines, and I was able to find two or three Pokemon that fit my playstyle in just a few matches.Īfter an hour or two of playing, your Pokemon will gain access to three Held Item slots and a Battle Item that add some much needed pre-match depth to the strict A/B nature of leveling. Take Cinderace, a speedy ranged attacker who, at level 8, can choose between Flame Charge, a damaging dash attack, or Feint, an evasive buff perfect for outplaying. Each activated skill can branch into one of two options as you level up, allowing you to lightly customize your playstyle mid-match. Both games have a similarly simplified take on character progression, with each of Unite’s Pokemon having access to just two activated skills during a match (in addition to two set passives and a slow-charging ultimate ability). I quickly started to notice parallels between Unite and another MOBA that tried to make the genre more accessible: Blizzard’s Heroes of the Storm, which has been quietly plugging along since development was slowed in 2018. It’s a cute spin on the established genre mechanics, but the match timer and simplicity of these static objectives eventually left me feeling like I was replaying the same match over and over no matter what Pokemon I selected. These points, called Aeos Energy, are collected by defeating the wild Pokemon that spawn around the map, then banked by dunking them Space Jam-style into the enemy team’s Goal Zones, which are Unite’s version of the towers that defend each lane. Rather than ending with the spectacular destruction of the enemy’s base, Unite’s matches are on a 10-minute timer with the winning team being whichever squad scores the most points before the buzzer sounds. You’ll clash along the lanes, killing your opponents and pushing toward enemy towers until one team has been driven back to their base, forced to watch helplessly as their towers fall.Įxcept they don’t actually fall, in Unite’s case. ![]() Each player takes direct control of a single Pokemon from a decent roster of 21 (including favorites like Greninja and Garchomp) that gets stronger as the match goes on. Pokemon Unite’s premise will be instantly recognizable to anyone who has so much as glanced at a MOBA in the last 10 years: two teams of five players, two symmetrical lanes littered with auto-defending towers, and a “jungle” full of neutral enemies filling the space in the middle and around the edges. Unfortunately, Pokemon Unite only partially sticks the landing, resulting in an enjoyable casual MOBA with some dubious microtransactions and little interest in pushing the boundaries of the genre. As a longtime fan of both Pokemon and Dota 2, I had my doubts about whether Pokemon Unite could successfully mix the best parts of these disparate gaming worlds, but my skepticism turned to delight after seeing how much fun this mobile brawler could actually be. The concept of a free-to-play Pokemon MOBA probably sounds like a dream come true to some people and a shameless cash grab to others. ![]() A weathered copy of Shirley Jackson’s The Lottery and Other Stories from Free Library of Philadelphia, among which is included “Flower Garden” They are broken into sections and given epigraphs to distinguish them from Joseph Glanvill‘s Saducimus Triumphatus, a 17th-century tome on witchcraft. What is the order for these stories? Cannot say. Many of the stories are fairly short, with the exceptions of “Flower Garden” and “Elizabeth” (haven’t read yet). “Flower Garden” was collected in The Lottery and Other Stories. The latter, a knowledgeable friend has it, conjures Shirley Jackson. Hadn’t heard of it before, but sounds like my wheelhouse.Īs well as Fever Dream by Samanta Schweblin. Want to read The Charterhouse of Parma and The Betrothed sometime soon, after reading in the NYRB about the new translation of The Betrothed. Have not yet read her other novels, I regret to say. The descent into madness of the central character in that book seems, inasmuch as I can judge it, terribly realistic, compelling. Its narrator, Merricat Blackwood, is such a lovely fantastical creature with whom one cannot but be charmed.īut in some ways Haunting is more insightful, more effective (but possibly only insofar as it’s considered a genre work). We Have is the more important work, everyone agrees, and the work that doomed her to literary posterity. Not so for Jackson (and perhaps one reason why she’s considered a genre writer and not a literary figure, per se).īoth of the above mentioned novels I consumed somewhat voraciously (and I’ve been well trained to be suspicious of too much enjoyment). But most of it isn’t “just enjoying”: it requires work on the reader’s part for enjoyment, nay, appreciation, to occur. A lot of what I read, all of it probably, falls into that category. Reading someone like Jackson reminds me of the joy of just enjoying good, interesting stories. I’ve read both of these over the past year, enjoyed both more than a little. Jackson is known for-when she is known-the aforementioned novel, We Have …, and The Haunting of Hill House. |
